Setting up your club page

Connect Stripe

Connect Stripe so your club can accept registration payments and receive payouts. Set this up before you open any paid event.

Before you start, make sure you can sign in to the Stripe account you want to use for the club.

Connect Stripe

Open your club page.
Go to the club setup area where payment settings are managed.
Click Connect Stripe.
Sign in to Stripe if prompted.
Complete the Stripe setup for the account you want to use.
Return to Good Game Sports and confirm the connection shows as Connected.

What to check before you go live

The connected Stripe account is the right one for your club.
Your business and payout details are complete in Stripe.
Your club can receive payouts to the correct bank account.

If Stripe is not connected

Open the Stripe setup again from your club page.
Check whether the status still shows Not Connected.
Finish any missing setup steps in Stripe.
Refresh the page and confirm the connection updates.

If the wrong account was connected, switch it before you publish paid events.

What to set up next

After payments are connected, review Manage Club Admins so the right staff can manage billing tasks. If your club also uses ratings or registration sync, continue with Connect DUPR Club and Connect CourtReserve.
